KUCHING, Oct 18 2025: Sarawak is moving in a correct direction that is determined by Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS), said Premier Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Openg.
Abang Johari: In Sarawak, we give more emphasis to the development of the people and less politicking. We want to protect our rights enshrined in the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63).
“Just like the global positioning system, what we really need is just a coordinate so that our direction is correct because we must protect our way to determine our direction,” he said at the opening of the Parti Rakyat Sarawak’s (PRS) triennial delegates conference (TDC) today.
“This is our way, through Sarawak First spirit,” Abang Johari, who is also GPS chairman, said.
The premier, however, said he views political stability in the country as important, explaining that it is for this reason that GPS has been giving its support to whoever commanded the majority support in Parliament to be the prime minister of Malaysia, from Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, Datuk Seri Ismail Yaakob and Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
He said he wants a political stability in the country and a strong federal government and less politicking.
“In Sarawak, we give more emphasis to the development of the people and less politicking. We want to protect our rights enshrined in the Malaysia Agreement 1963 (MA63),” he said.
Abang Johari also reminded all the component parties of GPS to remain united, adding:”You know very well that there are certain people want to divide and rule us over the years.”
The premier praised Datuk Sri Joseph Salang Gandum for voluntarily stepping down as PRS president to allow a new person to take over.
He said he himself has to step down as the premier when the time comes.
He said he is growing old that is something he cannot avoid.
He said GPS component parties have to groom younger leaders to take over their places.
Among those present at the opening of the TDC were leaders of the GPS component parties.
